Why do I keep finding advertisements from animal shelters offering

25$/hour is what you pay to have the privilege of helping, not the opposite.

For real?

its because working in a shelter is so fukin stressful from having to deal with shitty adopters, shitty people surrendering animals, and shitty gossip that some staff will quit after a few months. The place i work at is literally understaffed with 2 staff members for the whole shelter when we get 200+ people comimg asking to poke and prod the animals

In busy areas with an overabundance of volunteers, especially students trying to get their mandatory animal experience requirements in, yeah. Usually it is more like $5-20 though.

If there is a lack of volunteers, I can see it being an actual job offer. Usually they don't go more than a couple dollars above minimum wage, however.

I work in a shelter and I have never, ever heard of this. However I have also never heard of a$25/h position at a shelter

I was just kidding. Not surprised it actually exists though. I was "inspired" by those holiday farms where you pay to participate in a harvest...
